A working definition
Agentic AI in hospitality is AI that can pursue a hotel job — protect inventory, reprice within policy, answer a guest, recover a failed channel push — by planning steps and acting on systems, with humans defining the guardrails.
It is not a synonym for a chatbot with a hotel tone. Chatbots retrieve answers. Agentic systems propose and, when allowed, execute.
How NISKA uses the term
NISKA describes the loop as observe, reason, recommend, request approval when required, execute through secure APIs, and log the action. Eight specialist agents share one property model.
High-impact writes wait. That is the confirm gate. Generative AI may draft the words. The agentic claim is the action under control.
